TV Show - Future Episodes


Now that we have a TITLE, a LOG LINE, a THROUGH LINE, some CHARACTERS, for my proposed TV show about a steakhouse called Beefer's, let's sketch out some potential episodes.

Note: this is horribly first draft. Some ideas...

"The Showdown" - Herman is new to the job and already trouble is brewing when old loan sharks get wind of Herman's new job and demand payment. The interest is going to be paid by free dinners EVERY night. Hilarity ensues

"Mr. Simon's Finger" - When Mr. Simon loses his finger in the french fryer, the restaurant goes crazy trying find it before a customer stumbles upon it. Hilarity ensues.

"The Vegetarians" - Jack Beanstalk and his Veggie Warriors take the restaurant over, hold the staff hostage and make vegetarian demands upon the world. Hilarity ensues.

"The Grapes of Wrath" - A fruit truck arrives with a very persistent salesman with an offer everyone at the restaurant is afraid to refuse. Hilarity ensues

"The Salad Bar Affair" - The salad bar takes up an ungodly portion of the restaurant. Half of the items on there are unidentifiable expect for the names (that make no hint at what kind of food it is). When a new batch with new names arrives on the corporate truck, does it go on the salad bar or is it a new cleaning product?

I'm thinking of "Captain C's soul mate." The story line about a delusional crusty old sailor hundreds of miles from the water. He has these imaginary friends including a sea-monster made out of paper mache that has a Coors Light bottle on its head.
